Indian rapper Sidhu Moose Wala, who was shot dead last month, received a special tribute in Times Square in New York.
Punjabi rapper and singer Sidhu Moose Wala received one of the greatest tributes in New York’s Times Square on his 29th birth anniversary on June 11. Billboards played clips of some of the late singer’s popular songs, as fans stopped to enjoy the music. One of the slideshows also caught a glimpse of the late artist with his mother.
Several videos circulating on social media show the crowd chanting, as many perform their signature moves to the beat. Fans also clicked on pictures in front of Sidhu Moose Wala picture screens. It is pertinent to mention that Moose Wala would have been 29 years old on his birthday this year, but he was killed 12 days earlier.
For the unexperienced, Sidhu Moose Wala was shot dead in the Mansa district of India’s Punjab state on May 29, a day after the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) administration lowered his security.
A Canadian-based gangster, Satinder Singh, aka Goldy Brar, claimed responsibility for the Punjabi artist’s murder, claiming he took revenge for killing his brothers.
Moose Wala was cremated on his ancestral land in his home village Moosa in Mansa district.
Earlier, various Indian and foreign artists also paid tribute to the deceased singer.
